Central government employees, on several occasions, have expressed their disappointment over the long delay in rolling in out revised allowances.
The Narendra Modi-led cabinet is likely to meet today and is expected to take a decision on revised allowances under the Seventh Pay Commission.
According to reports, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley is likely to table the proposal for the revised allowance structure at the Cabinet meet–the move will benefit nearly 50 lakh Central government employees.
